Please be aware that the list is subject to change and may not include free access to specialized exhibitions or shows. Before visiting any garden or museum we recommend verifying hours of operation. Please remember to carry your UC Botanical Garden membership card with you when you travel to reciprocating gardens. (Please note: reciprocal privileges are for the member(s) named on the card only, and you may be required to show a photo ID. If you would like to know if an institution extends the reciprocal visit to your guest, please contact the institution directly to learn their policies)
